Rule

Famous quotes containing the word rule:

    The only rule is, do what you really, impulsively, wish to do. But always act on your own responsibility, sincerely. And have the courage of your own strong emotion.

    It is a rule of creative ability that it does nothing of any value, while it is possessed by this afflatus of vanity.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    When any practice has become the fixed rule of the society in which we live, it is always wise to adhere to that rule, unless it call upon us to do something that is actually wrong. One should not offend the prejudices of the world, even if one is quite sure that they are prejudices.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
